A Business, A Passion, A Legacy
Epping Forest Antiques, in the rural village of Lively, Virginia, has long been a favorite of East Coast dealers and decorators seeking a special piece or serendipitous find. Thanks to Louise deJarnette Jesses discriminating eye and her frequent forays into the marketplace, collectors have come to count on Epping Forest for a broad selection of distinctive pieces at competitive prices.
Louise traces her love of antiques and her keen eye to her family heritage. Her grandparents James deJarnette Jesse and Eoline Ball, a descendant of George Washingtons mother, Mary Ball, founded Epping Forest Antiques in 1953 in the dining room of Epping Forest Plantation, Mary Balls birthplace. They were soon joined by their daughter-in-law, Louise Palmer Jesse, who took over day-to-day operations in 1966.
Growing up in an antique shop, so to speak, Louise deJarnette Jesse, the current owner, developed an early appreciation for the artistry and craftsmanship of the past and a passion for sharing that legacy with others. In 1972, she joined her mother in the family business. An avid collector herself, she specializes in Christmas ornaments and antique toys but readily admits that odd, eclectic treasures often find their way either to the shop or her collection.
